I used to live in China for about 4 years and the meal I hard really brought back memories. I came there for lunch with me husband. He ordered the duck and I ordered the vegetables with tofu. We also each had some coconut juice.
They have two vegetarian or vegan dishes. You need to order at the counter and then they will bring it to your table.
I believe that both dishes were of good portions and the pricing was also very good. I can’t wait to eat there again. It was delicious! I definitely recommend everyone to come and try it out!

Fantastic Chinese food in the middle of Malmö. Smaller restaurant with tables both inside and outside, and the menu consists of many smaller dishes that are perfect for sharing. We shared 4 dishes between two people and that was the perfect amount of food for us. The salmon dish was especially amazing. Will definitely be back again.

This place is amazing! I’ve been here a few times now and I absolutely love it. They serve with no hesitation the most authentic and tasty Chinese food in Malmö. The restaurant is really cozy and a great spot for a quick lunch or a fancy dinner. The food is something else. I really love their soy and ginger salmon, pickled cucumbers and the Gai lan. I like to ask for a bowl of extra rice and mix with the left over sauce from the Gai lan - so good. The only minus really would be that the toilet is very small. But for all the other good things that this restaurant has to offer it really doesn’t matter.
